Alright, I have a few more now that Ive been away.

1. In places it shows how your liberals are going around, either on foot or in a wheelchair. I think it would be cool if there were more "vehicles" you can use on location. Like roller skates, bikes and thinks, and if you had one it'd give you another roll for dodging attacks when you run away from a group based on agility, and boosts in the roll like cars give.
2. Similarly, with the wheelchair, Id like to see more disabilities, like liberals going blind and having the need a service dog, and in a fight the dog attacks for them. For an added funny maybe they can get "Chick head" and the chicken will sometimes attack others (Either the infected person, another liberal, or someone on the same square.).
3. When you go to the police station, there could be an evidence locker, which you can break into similar to the safes on the outskirts. Except when you break in, it does something different, one of two things. Either take a few random charges off a random liberal, or remove some heat off the safe house the liberals came from. However, this would get the liberal a charge of "Tampering with evidence."
4. When in court there is a chance of your liberal having an outburst on the judge and the court, gaining the liberal an automatic guilty verdict, but an extra month in the court house, for simplicity, while being held for contempt.

That rhymes.

1. In places it shows how your liberals are going around, either on foot or in a wheelchair. I think it would be cool if there were more "vehicles" you can use on location. Like roller skates, bikes and thinks, and if you had one it'd give you another roll for dodging attacks when you run away from a group based on agility, and boosts in the roll like cars give.

I'm not sure how site vehicles would work. Don't most buildings have policies against riding bikes and roller skates? Also, this may be because I'm super clumsy in real life, but I can't picture any attempt at bullet dodging on roller blades ending in anything other than falling on one's ass.

I do like the idea of using bicycles to travel between sites, though. If fact having bicycles equipped as the squad vehicle should give them a bonus when escaping from a safehouse siege. Currently, the LCS has to escape from a siege on foot, implying access to their cars was blocked off. Bicycles, however, could be stored inside the safehouse, allowing the squad to just grab them on the way out.

2. Similarly, with the wheelchair, Id like to see more disabilities, like liberals going blind and having the need a service dog, and in a fight the dog attacks for them. For an added funny maybe they can get "Chick head" and the chicken will sometimes attack others (Either the infected person, another liberal, or someone on the same square.).

I'm not quite sure what you mean by "Chick Head", but I like the seeing eye dog idea. Not sure how it would work, but the game can always use more dogs.

3. When you go to the police station, there could be an evidence locker, which you can break into similar to the safes on the outskirts. Except when you break in, it does something different, one of two things. Either take a few random charges off a random liberal, or remove some heat off the safe house the liberals came from. However, this would get the liberal a charge of "Tampering with evidence."

Yes. I have nothing to add, except to say that this idea is awesome.

4. When in court there is a chance of your liberal having an outburst on the judge and the court, gaining the liberal an automatic guilty verdict, but an extra month in the court house, for simplicity, while being held for contempt.

I'm not sure if there would be a benefit to this. Perhaps it's something that could only affect Liberals with low Juice? Surely proper Liberals would be too well bred for this sort of thing.

EDIT: Apparently that doesn't rhyme after all.  :(

Its a really old reference no one will probably ever get. Its an "illness" that a character got in a show call "Invader Zim."

I'm not sure how site vehicles would work. Don't most buildings have policies against riding bikes and roller skates?

Most buildings also have policies against vandalism, theft, burglary, breaking and entering, assault, kidnapping, arson, murder and other Liberal activities.

2. Similarly, with the wheelchair, Id like to see more disabilities, like liberals going blind and having the need a service dog, and in a fight the dog attacks for them.

Actually, there is at least one task that requires vision, and the game will issue appropriate remarks if you bring a blind person instead.

However, I believe blindness is rare because it requires hits to the head, which have a fairly good chance of killing the victim outright.

Or maybe a hit from a, newly implemented, flashbang? If one were to be added. Or maybe an exploding battery?

And those activities set off the alarm. Or at least make area Conservatives "suspicious". Though I suppose zipping around the courthouse on a skateboard could make Conservatives suspicious in the same way that Liberal nudity does.

Same thing could go for skateboarding in certain buildings. Isn't "Skateboarding is a crime!" a very Conservative slogan?  ;D

You know, L+ is supposed to be ironically good.

Not, terrible.

How about Skateboard ramps are required by law in all buildings.

It is ironically good without the "No more cars" which doesn't work at all and is logically backwards especially since LCS takes place in a city that has been decentralized.

It is too silly in other words.

Like roller skates, bikes and thinks, and if you had one it'd give you another roll for dodging attacks when you run away from a group based on agility, and boosts in the roll like cars give.


I'm not sure if I like this idea, but I could see Public versus Private transportation being a cool issue.
C+ = Cars are limited to a maximum of 10mpg by law. Public transportation is an oxymoron. Bikes/Skateboards are outlawed. (At this level ,Traffic is so bad, driving checks are penalized in cities for both persuers and persuees, with crashes being far more likely)

C = Cars have no emission standards. Bikes/Skateboards are extremely unpopular. Publc transport exists only in major cities and is almost universally privatized (and very expensive).

N = Vehicles have nominal emission standards. Public transportation is somewhat subsidized. Some people ride their bikes to work, but its mostly couriers.

L = Car and road taxes are common in major cities. Public transport is heavily subsidized, as is buying bikes/skateboards. Bike sharing programs in major cities.  (At this level, escaping city locations by car spawns additional chasing units due to decreased response times and reduced traffic, but crashes are less likely for all involved)

L+ = By law, public transportation goes nearly everywhere and it is free. Private vehicles are banned downtown, require monthly emission checks and and are so heavily taxed no one owns one.  (At this level, police/government responses are faster, and escaping spawns twice as many persuers. Also, you can go to "outside the city" locations without a car)


3. When you go to the police station, there could be an evidence locker, which you can break into similar to the safes on the outskirts. Except when you break in, it does something different, one of two things. Either take a few random charges off a random liberal, or remove some heat off the safe house the liberals came from. However, this would get the liberal a charge of "Tampering with evidence."

I really like this idea, but I'd say if you break in you can either
A - Screw with the evidence, which decreases public opinion on the police and law and order in general. This should give you significant bonuses to courtroom defenses.

B - Steal stuff, which raises heat a TON. Randomly acquire money, drugs (count as valuable good you can pawn), stolen property (random, but usually valuables) or weapons (random, could be anything).




4. When in court there is a chance of your liberal having an outburst on the judge and the court, gaining the liberal an automatic guilty verdict, but an extra month in the court house, for simplicity, while being held for contempt.

Maybe not an outburst, but I like the idea this as a possible critical fail for a  "Defend Yourself" if you don't have enough law. It should probably give some Juice as well, since this is the sort of thing that tends to get picked up by news.

I think it would be cool if low heart members of the squad could succumb to the conservative dollars and then sell out your hideout and possibly tip off the police about your next target so they could ambush the squad
